    It was a pleasure to deal with Itfciain because ............

    Bought my first Vintage figures on the forum from Iain. If all transactions are as smooth as this with super figures at the end of it, I will be well chuffed! Cheers, Jim.

    Some excellent stuff on here over the last few days. Particularly like the loose display Simon; something I am aspiring to reproduce over the coming years! Cheers, Jim.

    SWFUK PODCAST LAUNCHED

    Really enjoyed this guys, must have taken a lot of work to make this happen. Enjoyed the range of interviews and topics discussed. Couple of comments- figure of the week focus? Could discuss role in films and success of conversion to figure, rarity, variations. Just a thought. Finally, I...

    Thanks all. I am a head of Upper School at a secondary school Cazzavr, responsible for years 10 and 11. Hormones and that. Regularly drop in the odd Star Wars link to a lesson. Millenium Falcon made an appearance yesterday, comparing the upcoming exams to navigating an asteroid field. Think...

    What are people's experiences of this event? Is it a good opportunity to prime the wallet and buy some vintage? Pretty sure I will be booking tickets regardless but would like a heads up if I need to save some pennies....guest list looks rather good. Cheers, Jim.

    Who's Who - Introduce yourself!

    Hello everyone, dipped into the forum for the first time a couple of weeks ago, wealth of information and great folk so far, but thought I had better introduce myself properly. I'm Jim, based just outside Norwich and for work I teach. Star Wars fan since I was little, but being born just after...

    Starting out as a collector

    Excellent couple of hours at the Norwich Sci Fi event at UEA this morning. Glad I waited after seeing all sorts come up on various forums and Ebay that had me sorely tempted. Picked up a couple of bargains, the first being a B-Wing fighter with pilot. All looks in good condition, no laser sounds...

    Starting out as a collector

    Well, I'm off and running, Decided to go loose, Vintage and POTF. Iain sold me Lando in Skiff disguise and Logray, lovely figures. Weequay and Bossk on the way to join them. Whatever happens, Lando and Logray will hold a special place in my collection! Couple more questions guys: 1) Does COO...

    Starting out as a collector

    More than happy to take my time guys. I have done a lot of research today and already have an idea of what is out there, and what people are paying. I can see certain figures becoming targets over time; I will have to create a spreadsheet! However, if I were to avoid ebay, where else could you...

    Starting out as a collector

    Have had that date in mind for a long time, unfortunately a 30th birthday in Bristol has scuppered my plans for Sci-Fi. Should be a good drink-up regardless. Thanks again for your offer, I will no doubt be in touch at some point to start my collection. Just saw a Yak Face on Ebay for £91+...

    Starting out as a collector

    You guys are on fire here! Funnily enough I have already come across your Ebay store, some lovely items there. I see you are based in Norwich, I live just outside the city. Any decent second hand stores that turn up figures in the city? I will have a proper look over the next few days and PM...

    Starting out as a collector

    Thank-you all for taking the time to reply. Some sound advice for me to take on board. I am beginning to narrow down my options, and a vintage set of loose figures seems a good place to start. Are POTF classed as vintage? What would you define as 'modern', in terms of years and series of...

    Starting out as a collector

    Hello, I am just beginning to delve into the world of collectible figures and honestly- I don't know where to start! I could really use some advice from you guys. EBAY is an absolute Minefield for a start, and it is difficult to know whether or not I'm getting a decent figure at a decent...
